- Heat canola oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Add cauliflower and onion; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 10-12 minutes.
- Stir in garlic, chili pepper, cumin, oregano and cinnamon until fragrant, about 1 minute.

- Serve immediately in tortillas, topped with avocado crema.
Notes
- *Mexican crema is a creamy, slightly tangy condiment (similar to sour cream and crème fraîche) and is used in a range of Mexican dishes from soups to stews and as a topping for tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and more.
